The Daily Double

In something akin to a political charity event horizon, political charity Alliance for a Better Minnesota has a new TV ad starring a political charity TakeAction Minnesota community organizer.

And not just any left-wing community organizer, but go-to-gal Jessica English, who has taken her tale of homeless-single mom-minimum wage worker on a multi-year magical misery tour.
Here she is in 2011.  Here she is in 2013.

She finds a home here.  Evil bankers threaten to evict her here.  It’s enough to make you wonder why the string of left-wing nonprofits who’ve employed her can’t pay enough to keep her in stable housing.
In 2014, she’s starring in a Democrat TV ad ("Impossible") attacking the Republican candidate for governor on the minimum wage issue.  At one point in the ad, the following words appear on the screen,

"Jeff Johnson Hurt 350,000 Minnesota Workers.  Source:  Star Tribune 4/10/14"

The ad appears to refer to this article, which reports on efforts to raise the minimum wage in Minnesota.  The article itself does not mention Jeff Johnson.

[Gary Gross has debunked the ad's central claims.]

As for Jessica English, we are to understand that in the entire state of Minnesota, population 5,000,000+, Democrats cannot locate a second hard-luck story to put on television.  Instead, the state Democrats recycle the same sad sack saga over and over again.
The magical misery tour is waiting to take you away.
